This Fall

Here are some of the highlights we experienced so far this fall.

They are not necessarily in order, since I don't remember exactly when they all happened.

Emma Started School.

This was actually the 2nd day. She looks so cute in her uniforms.

This is the first day. She is just glowing with excitement.

And of course Madison couldn't be left out.
Madison has been going through a jacket phase.
Even when it was too hot outside for a jacket, or she comes inside she has to wear one.

These are the butterflies we raised from catepillers in the late summer.
The one on the right didn't come all the way out of his crystalis, and couldn't fly.

We found one dead, and decided to let the others go, so after the others flew away Emma held the dead butterfly gently in her hands talking to it, and then started figuring it out by playing with the wings and bending it in weird ways, kids!!

This is one time Emma was in time out and

I guess Madison thought it looked fun because she joined her!

This is Madison's first movie in the theater.

We saw "UP" at the dollar theater.

That's the only place I take my kids, since I don't know how long it will last.

I ended up leaving about 15 minutes early with Madison.

That's not bad.

We made Brownies, and as the girls were licking the beaters,

Madison grabbed some vegetables that were sitting on the counter,

and started eating that instead.

So funny!

But not Emma!

Madison LOVES Dora!

This is my birthday, we went to Joe's Crab Shack as a family.

The girls got dressed up.

And I got the birthday song.

My friend Jenny was our waitress,

So she let Emma go pick out my costume.

Emma decided I should be a princess,

and I made her call me "Pretty, Pretty Princess" all night long.

It was so funny.

And she made me wear a bib.

My kids just stared at me with that thing on.
